< Postanak 11 >

1 A bijaše na cijeloj zemlji jedan jezik i jednake rijeèi.
And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
2 A kad otidoše od istoka, naðoše ravnicu u zemlji Senarskoj, i naseliše se ondje.
And it came to pass as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there.
3 Pa rekoše meðu sobom: hajde da pravimo ploèe i da ih u vatri peèemo. I bjehu im opeke mjesto kamena i smola zemljana mjesto kreèa.
And they said one to another, come, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.
4 Poslije rekoše: hajde da sazidamo grad i kulu, kojoj æe vrh biti do neba, da steèemo sebi ime, da se ne bismo rasijali po zemlji.
And they said, come, let us build us a city, and a tower, whose top [may reach] to heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we should be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
5 A Gospod siðe da vidi grad i kulu, što zidahu sinovi èovjeèiji.
And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men were building.
6 I reèe Gospod: gle, narod jedan, i jedan jezik u svijeh, i to poèeše raditi, i neæe im smetati ništa da ne urade što su naumili.
And the LORD said, Behold, the people [is] one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
7 Hajde da siðemo, i da im pometemo jezik, da ne razumiju jedan drugoga što govore.
Come, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
8 Tako ih Gospod rasu odande po svoj zemlji, te ne sazidaše grada.
So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
9 Zato se prozva Vavilon, jer ondje pomete Gospod jezik cijele zemlje, i odande ih rasu Gospod po svoj zemlji.
Therefore is the name of it called Babel, because the LORD there confounded the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

28 I umrije Aran prije Tare oca svojega na postojbini svojoj, u Uru Haldejskom.

But Sarai [was] barren; she had no child.

And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son's son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran, and dwelt there.
32 I poživje Tara svega dvjesta i pet godina; i umrije Tara u Haranu.
And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran.
